I'm leaving on a jet plane but I DO know when I'm back again


I also use to say "Cape Town I love you, but you're bringing me down" 
I love this city but I am ready for Sweden now.

“South Africa is a place of spirit-distorting paradox, a land with a bipolar disorder that swings you from joy to despair in the space of a heartbeat. It twists your arm behind your back and ties your sanity in a knot. It bullies you until you’ve forged your opinion on politics, crime, AIDS, the state of the roads, the economy or the politicians.
It’s not for the wishy washy or the fence sitters. It demands you know who you are and what you stand for. It keeps you fit, on your toes and looking over your shoulder. It steals your purse and holds your soul ransom. As much as I was, at times, on the edge of sanity living there, I was also stimulated, driven and felt bungy-jumpingly alive. The shades of happiness and fear mottled. I knew that leaving, like chemotherapy, would kill off the best things in my life as well as the worst.”

Afrikaburn and some other stuff

My friend Mari did this awesome video from her last visit to Cape Town.

I love it.

TVÅ VECKOR!

2 weeks left. GEEZ I am starting to freak out. Haha. I always do.
But it will be FUN. But I will miss some people a LOT.

Janilla, Hanna, Weronika, Katha, CJ, Martyn, Jon, Bub, Kurt, Gino, David, Alejandra and many more that have become to mean so much to me the last year.
I think Janilla knows me better than anyone in this world actually. There has been some rough times in my life and she was there, all the time. Thanks Janilla for feeding me and drinking wine with me when it was needed the most :)

Anyway, can not wait to get away from wind and rain and get some sun again.
